Pros: Superior features, Compact yet rough, Touch screen
Cons: Display hard to read in sunlight, Small, low-resolution screen, Performance not the best
To add to one more of the Oregon series, The Garmin Dakota 20 is one of the smaller versions of Garmin’s successful Oregon models. It’s almost balanced to reinstate the eTrex series, bringing all of the Oregon’s touch screen goodness while holding the eTrex’s small form factor, light weight and long battery life. Both units in the two-model Dakota series sport a 2.6” screen. On the Dakota 20, comes a tri-axial electronic compass, barometric altimeter, wireless data transfer between units and the ability to accept a micro-SD card, all features lacking on the Dakota 10. Topo maps are absent on both models.
